AGAWAM --The band Pandemonium will hit the stage at 7 p.m. during Tuesday evening's "Night Out Against Crime," a free event now in its fifth year.

Such events, designed to strengthen police-community relations and put criminals on notice, are held in thousands of communities across all 50 states.

Expect free food and beverages, a dance school presentation, face-painting, bicycle safety workshops, document shredding, and a Jaws of Life demonstration.

A Sikorsky Black Hawk helicopter from the National Guard will land at 5 p.m., and a Life Star helicopter from Hartford Hospital will also touch down.

Agawam's event is set for Aug. 7 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the School Street Park at 418 Corey St.

Representatives from numerous law enforcement and public safety agencies will have displays set up. Now in its fifth year, the event is hosted by the Agawam Mayor's Office and the Agawam Police Department.
